The Miracle Worker

The Miracle Worker, a drama by William Gibson, is directed by Ellis Baker.

The story of the early relationship of Helen Keller, blind and deaf from early childhood, and her young teacher Annie Sullivan, a pioneer in the education of the handicapped, this classic dramatization has stirred audiences for six decades. Only Annie Sullivan “realizes that there’s a mind waiting to be rescued from the dark, tortured silence” of Helen’s unhappy existence; only her courageous perseverance in the face of almost hopeless odds rescues Helen from her prison allowing her to live a long, full, inspiring life known the world over.
